Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for February 03, 2017

Nope! Apparently, she can’t smoke — even for $250,000.

Now that’s  a way to squelch a bad habit !!!

Good morning, Smokin’ hot  Vista Bill ! and to the rest of the second hand smoke exposed spectators ! :)

Now I know why my parents always said smoking was bad for you!

Dragon Lady is supposed to be good with a whip herself.

Doubleup earns his keep.

A rude introduction to Doubleup!

Good morning guys!

♫♫ Smoke smoke smoke that cigarette ♫♫

Whatever else you could say about Doubleup, he’s a mean man with that whip…..

That’s the most pro-active Doubleup has been for quite some time.

Put it out! Out!

Remember this old PSA?: “I mind very much if you smoke.”

I’d say Dick Tracy saw that coming from the expression on his face

Dragon Lady’s response: “Fine, I would’ve got the message if it was Brooke Shields standing behind you.”

Maybe Doubleup isn’t so bad after all.

Third panel is VERY Eisner. :D

Her auction, her rules.

Fresh underwear, anyone? LOL.

Mr. Carrion immediately reconsiders the rude thing he was about to do.

Crack!

Doubleup, he cracks his whip

Burning embers do a flip.

Dragon Lady loves to smoke

On fierce pride she’s made to choke.

Carrion, taken aback

Glad his birdy not attacked.

Spirit shocked at what he saw

Tracy sees no broken law.

Doubleup strikes with precision

Flammel pleased with her decision.

Thank You for not Smoking!!

Doesnt allow smoking around her because second hand smoke can STILL kill you, immortality potion or not ;)

Boy, she is STRICT! (Dragon Lady won’t be draggin’ on that again!)

Love the reactions in that last panel – Carrion’s discovered someone who’s more trouble than the Spirit!

Hey Vista Bill, I thought I was the only one that remembered that song.

Can’t wait to find out if he just broke the cigarette holder or it was off with the head as alluded to earlier that he could do that.

Smoking is evil… Wait… Now where’s my lighter…

Diet has wisely decided he better leave that stogie in his pocket after all! Ditto for Warbucks.

You don’t tug on Superman’s cape.

You don’t spit into the wind.

You don’t pull the mask off the ol’ Lone Ranger

And you don’t mess around with Doubleup’s whip.

A doo doodada dee deedee deedeedee.

Perenelle just made an enemy of the Dragon Lady. She will want payback for that!

Shouldn’t Doubleup go Crack! Crack! with that whip?

Very impressive, Perenelle and DoubleUp. You certainly got the attention of the Spirit, Carrion, and no doubt Dragon Lady.

But don’t be too smug in your House Rules. The Dragon Lady holds a grudge for a long time and has a way of getting her revenge….

The Spirit looks like he’s wearing those funny specs with the “eyes on springs” in Panel 3!
